Tue Mar 31 201515:50Vincent Brown: Signs 1-Year Deal With Colts
Brown signed a one-year contract with the Colts on Tuesday, and he is expected to compete for the No. 4 wide receiver role, ESPN's Adam Caplan reports.
A third-round draft pick back in 2011, Brown has never caught more than 41 passes in a season. Injuries have been part of the problem, but he also failed to take advantage of the opportunities that came his way. With T.Y.

Brown (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

A calf injury ended Brown's tenure in San Diego, and he's been plagued by hamstring and groin issues since joining Oakland.

Brown is still sitting with just three career touchdowns, with only one since 2011.

Brown (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns.
A limited participant both Wednesday and Thursday, Brown was unable to take the practice field Friday, suggesting the hamstring did not responded especially well throughout the week.

Brown was able to participate in a limited capacity both Wednesday and Thursday after not practicing at all last week, but his status for Sunday's game against Cleveland remains uncertain.

The hamstring injury kept Brown from last Sunday's loss to San Diego, and he's in danger of sitting against Arizona as well after missing practice both Wednesday and Thursday. He would still have a chance to play if he can return to the practice field Friday, but Andre Holmes has emerged as a viable option opposite James Jones, so Brown would likely play a minimal role if active.
